A 'Forth Series' (WHS & SN) postcard of Newmarket Street stamped Consett Sep 25 1911 bears a photographic image of this building in its Co-op days. The overall structure has changed little in the intervening ca.100 years, new shop front windows being the most obvious addition. However one of two adjoining shops in 1911 seems to have been removed to create the alleyway along the near side of the Co-op building in GEOGRAPH image 643655.
